As the Knicks prepare to host the Hawks, all eyes should be on Landry Shamet to eclipse the 6.5 mark for points and rebounds. Why? Simply put, his recent form is compelling. Over the last 17 games, Shamet has hit the Over in an impressive 13 of them, showcasing a knack for stepping up when it matters. At home, his numbers soar-he's hit this mark in 10 straight games, averaging about 7 points against Atlanta historically.While his recent averages of 6.6 points and 1.4 rebounds might seem modest, the opportunities will be plentiful against a Hawks defense that struggles to contain guards. With an expected stat value of nearly 11, it's clear the potential is there. The stars are aligning for Shamet to be a pivotal contributor in this matchup, making the Over a smart bet for Saturday night.

As the Atlanta Hawks gear up to take on the New York Knicks, keep an eye on Jalen Johnson's rebounding numbers, particularly the under on 10.5. While he's averaged a commendable 11.2 boards over his last five games, that figure drops to 10 on the road. Against a competitive Knicks frontcourt, Johnson's away matchups have yielded just 9.8 rebounds per game, reflecting the challenges he faces in hostile territory.Moreover, his recent success is tempered by a hit rate of only 5 out of 9 when playing away. The Knicks tend to dominate the boards, particularly at home, and with Johnson's expected stat value sitting around 9.28, it's hard to see him surpassing that threshold tonight. Given the context and the matchups, taking the under on Johnson's rebounds could be a savvy move as the Hawks look to secure a crucial win.
